ambassador stevens in benghazi, personnel in the compound safe haven. this went to the f.b.i. this went to director of national intelligence and this went to the state department. most disturbing of all of them, it went to the situation room. so all levels of government. all levels of the white house had at least some knowledge of what was going on there. >> greg: but who really reads their e-mails at work? >> kimberly: clearly you don't. >> greg: someone might have been at lunch. you get so many e-mails and could have gone in the spam file. ridiculous. >> kimberly: is that what they'll say next? >> greg: probably. obama prides themselves on leading from behind but they're lying from behind. the big story here is the administration put p.c. before safety. the language they kept strongest was about the video not the attack. they had a fear of being perceived as islamicophobia. the tolerance language excuses this evil. it's nuts. they still haven't, they still haven't said who pushed the video. >> bob: horrible. >> greg: it is. it's nuts. this is all about the political correctn
